North Shenango is covered by the state police
North Shenango has no police department of its own in the FBI’s data. Calls here most likely go to the Pennsylvania State Police, and their numbers cover the whole area they patrol, not just North Shenango.

Property crimes (burglary, theft, stolen cars)
Violent crimes (assault, robbery, rape, murder)
These are counts, not rates. The FBI doesn’t publish how many people each agency covers, so we can’t turn them into a per-resident figure or a Safety Grade. Source: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting, offenses known to law enforcement by county and by state agency.
